And so it begins.
Doomed, I recommend you open up the new Quietus Clarion (IC) thread with what happens in the night.

That will have to wait until tomorrow. It took me a while to get the other game's new thread up.

Rash'gar and Xein:
(click to show/hide)
Because of Rash'gar's empathic link with Xein, he was able to feel Xein's emotions during the punishment. Rash'gar didn't feel the pain, or hear the words, but he felt their effects.
Rash'gar, you've felt this sort of thing before. It was common when you were a pup. Lord Skinner frequently performed medical experiments on Xein. Skinner was always careful about patching Xein up afterwards, unless the experiment had to do with studying how Xein healed, but the pain as it was happening was almost always part of the experiment itself.
This was different though. The pain of Skinner's experiments did not come with the emotions of shame, self-loathing and bitterness that the sister's punishment did.
Xein, the details of what the Sisters did to you is up to you. Keep in mind that whatever happened, Rash'gar would be aware of the emotional effects on you. Feel free to use spoilers here, or use PMs to discuss those effects.
Xein is still in recovery after his ordeal and so will not be present in this next scene.
Clouse, your squad is likewise not with you right now. Legate Jael seems to want to keep this to a smaller group.

Rash'gar, a large stone cabinet is falling towards you. You have enough time to make a decision about what you want to do-
Will you dodge out of the way, leaving your sigil, or will you let it hit you, and somehow try to reduce the impact?
Sir Riddar, who will you toss the chalk to first, Clouse or Rash'gar?
(as for the prayer, make something up)

Rash'Gar doesn't really understand whats going on despite Jaels words.
He will dodge out of the way.

That post wasn't to necessarily interrupt what was happening on the other side of the story. It was more of a here's what happened to Xein. I'll probably interject one more time with a reaction post after something else happens with the rest of the group but otherwise it's going to be your guys scene.

Xein's punishment already happened. He's currently in recovery. That was a flashback.

Then, in the spirit of international friendship, he should stuff his face along with us.

Doomed, I want Rash'Gar to wait until the last possible moment before dodging out of the way of the falling shelf. If possible Have him leap around and swing up on the topside of the shelf hopefully staying within the circle somehow. Use Karma if possible for something like this.

I keep forgetting that we have Karma as a stat. It seems like almost no one uses it most days.

Karma in this game tends to represent luck, or serendipity, rather than skill.
In an instance where a player asks about a specific of the environment that is undefined like "this room is full of discarded weapons, is there one within arm's reach of me that is size-appropriate?". For something like that i'd roll Karma.
An appropriate Karma check in this situation might be something like "is one of the room's supporting pillars close enough for me to rebound off after I dodge so that I can end up back where I started?"
We haven't established exactly where the symbol you're standing on is, and now suddenly it's important, so we'll let fate decide if you're in an advantageous position or not according to what you'd like to try.
Then I'll have you make an acro check or something to see if you can make it work.
Does that sound fitting, or would you rather go with something else? Would you like me to make the rolls?

How about he grabs the edge of the shelf and swing around and up as it comes down and land on top of the shelf as he lands? Otherwise he will just try and avoid being crushed regardless of where he ends up.
You can make the rolls DH
Hes more worried about avoiding the shelf than staying within any kind of symbol there is. He doesnt really understand the whole symbol thing anyway.

You lucky dog…
Everything works like a charm, you're on top of the now-shattered cabinet, technically still inside the symbol.
You still have the problem of how you're going to draw a circle around it like Jael said to do now that there's a bunch of shattered stone shelving all over it.

Next choice.
Do you stay within the protection of the Circle of Binding, or, do you try to barricade the doorway?
There are 3 large shelving units that could be pushed to the door, or knocked over in front of it.
You could all three push cabinets and try to make a barricade, or you can all stay where you are and trust the sigils to protect you, or any combination thereof.
To give you a basic idea of how this will work, one is a physical barrier, the other is a spiritual barrier. Different rolls will be required, depending on what you choose, and how many of you choose which thing.
In case it isn't clear, the fell are a physical threat, but you are also in the same room as a contained, but unbound Demon. Up to you which you think is the bigger threat.
Go ahead and discuss it here, but keep in mind that your characters don't have a lot of time to talk to each other.

I say the demon is going for a better body. I'll stake my chances with fell fire fell.

Good call, I wouldn't have thought of that. But as I recall, Protection circles work only so long as nothing disturbs them. A pack of fiery angry fell that could be controlled by this demon might just do that. Ignoring them could very well lead to an unconstrained and free Demon.
Riddar will not allow that so easily. He's going to risk leaving his protection and hold off the Fell.
Casting Bulls strength to help him hold the barricade and then move to start pushing the Shelves forward.
